PS: OUR NETWORK – NAS SYSTEM – AND SOLUTIONS
There were many problems we had before introducing NAS Stations to our
network. Data was everywhere on mainly four computers with large hard drives.
Accounting software data files were on one computer and accessible computer to
computer. Kidz didn’t have access to the media server. And it goes on and on.
These NAS Stations solved the issues we had. Pulled all the hard drives and
installed SSD’s in the computers. The 1TB and over hard drive were installed in
the NAS’s. There is no longer any need to hold huge amounts of data on the
computers any more. The accounting data files are on the NAS available to all
computers that have the software installed. We have 7TB of NAS storage space,
5TB was from used computer hard drives. These LS421’s can handle, to the best
of my knowledge and at this time, 4TB hard drives in each bay. I’m sure it is not
limited, good tech support question.
Organized and store all the software, drivers, computer drive C backups,
personal files, church files, home business files, pictures, audio and media files
easily in to the NAS network.
Set up a DLNA NAS for media server… everybody now can use media files
direct from the NAS. Computers don’t have to be on all the time anymore as a
server. Everyone in the household has their own private place on a NAS with
user name and password for their use.
The benefits are many and well worth the $150 each, with 3 year warranty.
The customizable automatic backup with differential from NAS to NAS is a real
nice feature. No more manual backups of important church, business or personal
files. The customizable immediate backup feature is great upon initial setup.
Going to test the NAS “sleep” mode shortly in the future.
